why have I not thought of this?! I absolutely love it… and thanks to a post i found by craftypod via craftzine(and we are keeping the recycling alive), i’ve now decided not to replace a plain lamp with a wood base/brown suede shade that I felt was drab and little snooze factor in my place (this might even be my sunday evening project… so stay tuned for a follow-up). flip the switch on this project by simply adding a bit of trim to any old shade, it’s sure to brighten up a room.
